heya. i'm wondering if there's an easy way (i.e. widget) to generate a list of posts in only a specific category in the sidebar. for example if i had a "News" category and i want to list the last 5 posts from the category.
i did a bit of searching but wasn't able to find an easy way to execute this.
thanks!
Maybe the Sideblog plugin will solve your problem. The author says:
"Sideblog v3 differs from previous version in that it is Sidebar Widgets enabled".
The plugin allows you to select one or more categories to be presented in the sidebar ( Lika asides ).

You can use: Category Post Plugin by Brian Groce.
This plugin allows you to stipulate which category you wish to draw posts from.
ie:
<?php wp_cat_posts(2); ?> will display random posts from Category 2 in the sidebar.
